Online Resources for Water Education

West Basin is offering resources to teachers and families looking to bridge the gap between in-person instruction and distance learning due to COVID-19 closures.

Virtual Field Trips

Students will participate in exciting interactive webinars that focus on recycled water technology and recycled water use in the community. Virtual field trips are live-hosted by West Basin staff and are intended as an alternative to in-person field trip. Virtual field trips are available by request to school and youth groups throughout the summer time. For more information, please contact West Basin Education Coordinator Janel Ancayan at (310) 660-6253 or JanelA@westbasin.org.

Teachers can use the Water Recycling Lesson Plan as a field trip alternative to West Basin's Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility.
